Blind, mistook it for a Cabernet! Pretty aromatics. Delicious.

100% vespolina, when done right it makes for a perfectly expressive, unique and versatile wine all by itself. Shows dark notes on the nose and bright notes on the palate. In between there are all kinds of flowery spicy Alto Piemonte nuances. This is as fresh and refreshing as red wine gets.

Recommended by the somm at Ci Siamo, loved it — has some acidity and greenness. Would get again.

Less aroma than Nebbiolo but surprisingly high tannins and very healthy dense color.

Interesting grape. Lots of tannins with a hint of funk. Black cherries, touch of leather
